International Cricket Council (ICC) is all set to re-introduce neutral umpiring with the one-off Test between Bangladesh and Afghanistan.
The neutral umpires in the bilateral series had been halted since the outbreak of Covid-19 across the globe. ICC chairman Greg Barclay assured that they were again planning to return to neutral umpires, last year in Dhaka.
In Test matches two on-field umpires, one will be a neutral umpire while the match referee and TV umpires will be neutral as well and only the fourth umpire will be the home umpire.

The lone Test match will be played from June 14-18 at Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium, Mirpur.
